Abstract

Hydrothermal Leaching In article number 2300610, Amandeep Singh Pannu, Jose Alarco, and co-workers demonstrate the synthesis of high-quality graphitic carbon (GH) from human hair. The assembled Li-ion half-cells with the GH anode exhibits a gravimetric capacity equivalent to that of pure graphite over 100 cycles, presenting a new candidate as a lithium-ion battery anode. This study offers potential to initiate a new realm of research by redirecting our focus to a material once considered as mere waste.
